Morning baseball.
Angels at Mets Game 3 Gamethread
I like the extra dramatic Hamlet on Fire comments during these game threads. I almost never see these. Hitter strikes out and it’s like he froze a puppy solid so he could bludgeon a baby to death with it.
If the team were serious about winning a WC spot, they would not be having “bullpen days”.
It’s all a head fake.
But is there a sixth starter better than any of these bullpen dudes available?
Dakota Hudson? Shaun Anderson? Touki?
You’re basically back to Koch and Mederos – probably each equivalent to Jake Eder at this point. There’s just no SP depth to draw on.
Victor Mederos . hes already own the 40 man . Why the hell not?
Or they could have started Carson Fuller. Shoot that guy will do anything including drive the team bus. In fact I betcha he’d be good at Perrys Old job of scrubbing the player’s toilets clean in Arlington
Lot of hopin’ and wishin’ that a guy with a 8.76 MLB era, and a 7 K/9 in AAA is going to improve on Eder, though.
I wouldn’t call Mederos any contending team’s second or third resort. At least not an obvious one, though I’m sure they’ll lean on him eventually, bc what else is there to do?
